HENRICO COUNTY, Va. (WTVR) -- Police are searching for two suspects who tried to rob a man in Henrico County early Sunday.

Officers were called to the 5500 block of Percheron Court shortly before 1 a.m.

That’s where police said a man was unloading items from his vehicle when a man walked up to his driver’s-side door of his car.

That man pulled out what the victim believed was a black fake gun and demanded money.

At the same time, the victim said another man opened the passenger-side door of his car, demanded money and pointed another plastic gun.

The victim then grabbed the nose of the gun and then both suspects ran away and jumped into a 1990's model red or maroon Nissan Altima or Toyota Camery.

If you have information that could help police, call Crime Stoppers at 804-780-1000.
